The old Gary Cooper movie, Sgt. York, is a family favorite with our entire team. In one scene Ma asks the blessing and says, "Lord bless these vittles we done got...". Hence, the name of our recipe collection.

Coban Salata

Salad:
3 large tomatoes
2 cucumbers

Dice the vegetables and place them in a bowl.

Lemon & Oil Dressing:
¼ C. olive oil
¼ C. lemon juice
½ tsp sea salt
1-2 TB dill weed

Combine all ingredients in a bowl.  Whip with a fork until the dressing is a creamy white with green flakes.  :)  Pour Lemon & Oil dressing over vegetables and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes. This tastes better if it is refrigerated and marinated for several hours.

Mommy first tried this when she and Daddy lived in Turkey.  This is a Hannah, Daniel, and Mommy favorite!  This can also be made with zucchini or yellow squash or a combination of squash, zucchini, and cucumber.  We usually put a lot of dill weed in it.  Maybe one day our garden will have both cucumbers and tomatoes at the same time and we can make this!  :)

Love Always,
Mommy
